She's been wonderul up until now when it comes to eating, but we're starting to see some days where she's deciding she doesn't want to eat this or that. She's always willing t oeat what we're eating, however, so we're starting to give her bite-sized bits of our food. I love your sentence "Those were interesting poops."Bill Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850994802687070206.post-56362720957282640982011-11-07T23:13:36.368-05:002011-11-07T23:13:36.368-05:00Yeah, I watched way too much TV, but I always enjo...Yeah, I watched way too much TV, but I always enjoyed the time with my mom and dad much more. Usually when I watched TV, it was by myself.<br /><br />The mixed veggies are also great for talking about color. We started in with them very early because Macie really did not like pureed veggies but did like picking up whole pieces and eating them. I think she was eating peas and carrots and corn with only four teeth. Those were interesting poops.<br /><br />It's great once they start feeding themselves! Macie can eat a whole bowl of oatmeal and a plate of fruit for breakfast with hardly any assistance. Yay!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17752727339084996849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850994802687070206.post-69973446979927327902011-11-06T21:00:49.827-05:002011-11-06T21:00:49.827-05:00Amy - I like your approach - that sounds like what...Amy - I like your approach - that sounds like what we'll be doing. I can't help but feel guilty - I watched a TON of TV as a kid - you, too? - but there's just too much other good stuff I'd rather be doing with her. And - yep, she is doing awesome with the fruit and veggies. I feel foolish that I hadn't thought of th ebag of mixed veggies until I read your comment - we bought two of them at Wegman's tonight. It's strange to watch Violet feed a good protion of her meal to herself.Bill M.noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3850994802687070206.post-11109707593835442202011-11-05T10:59:13.384-04:002011-11-05T10:59:13.384-04:00We don't use the tv at all while Macie is awak...We don't use the tv at all while Macie is awake. If we do turn it on for a minute to check a major weather thing or maybe a game score, Macie is always surprised that it lights up. We do watch some youtube videos with her (TMBG and some other ABC type stuff), but she is always on one of our laps, and we sing together. Or we watch videos of baby Macie that we've taken, which she loves.<br /><br />Hey, looks like Violet is doing great with those peas! I can't tell you how many bags of organic mixed peas/carrots/corn we go through in this house. Macie loves them.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17752727339084996849noreply@blogger.com
